Centennial pool closes after leak discovered KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

KRISTEN DOUGLAS/THE MIRROR

Triumph over cancer Cancer survivors Suzanne Schoenfelder, left, and Salley Feast lead participants around the track during the Celebration Ceremony, which honours those who have won the battle against cancer, during Relay for Life last Saturday night at the Sportsplex. This year saw the event, which raises money for the Canadian Cancer Society, move to a new venue and day. Relay for Life was previously held at Phoenix School on Friday night. For more pictures of this year’s walk see page A5.

Royal LePage Advance Realty would like to congratulate all the Grads of 2012!

Centennial Pool is leaking, forcing the city to close the outdoor pool less than two weeks after its season opening.

To make matters worse, as of Tuesday morning, the city hadn’t been able to pinpoint exactly where the problem is.

“It’s leaking a considerable amount of water and it’s extremely difficult to determine where it’s coming from,” said Ross Milnthorp, the city’s manager of parks, recreation and culture on Monday afternoon.

“We’re unable to pinpoint the source of the leak.”

Repair crews have been using an infrared heat sensor from the fire department and camera that goes inside the pipes to find the problem.

Milnthorp said construction crews have been able to eliminate the tank side of the pool and have isolated the problem to the supply side. However, there are 16 different places where the supply system feeds water back to the pool’s tank – and they’re all underground.

“We can’t possibly dig up all 16,” Milnthorp said. “We’re doing the best we can, but it’s leaking a lot of water – more than we can sustain. We don’t anticipate fixing the problem will be difficult Continued on A2

once we find the source of the leak.”

He said it’s possible the 6.4 earthquake felt in Campbell River last Sept. 9 caused some damage underground, which would have gone unnoticed until the system was started up.

Centennial Pool opened for the summer on June 1.

The Campbell River

Salmon Kings swim club got back in the water the following Monday and were looking forward to a new season.

But Milnthorp said it was quickly apparent there was a problem with the pool and the decision was made last Friday to shut it down.

That’s affecting the Salmon Kings, who may have to look for a new home.

“The problem with the pool is unfortunate,” said Janice Scriba, president of the Campbell River Salmon Kings. “We have had to cancel several days of swim sessions so far.”

Liz Wilson, publicity manager of the Salmon Kings, said on Tuesday the club had to practice at the indoor Strathcona Gardens pool.

“We had a meet in

Duncan last weekend and we are in Victoria at the commonwealth pool this weekend, so it is very important that the Salmon Kings get their training time,” Wilson said.

Her son, who attends Willow Point elementary, was supposed to go on a field trip to Centennial Pool Monday but the trip had to be cancelled at the last minute.

“Two classes from Ecole Willow Point were just walking to catch the city bus to make it to the outdoor pool for their field trip when the teachers received a call that the pool was closed,” Wilson said. “The kids were all very disappointed.”

Milnthorp said he can’t speculate as to when the pool will reopen.

Man jailed over alleged relationship with teen PAUL RUDAN CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Their pictures and “pet” names flash up on the cell phones when they call each other.

He’s “Baby Boy” and she’s “Baby Girl.”

He’s 35 years old and she’s just 14.

On Monday, in Campbell River provincial court, Crown prosecutor John Boccabella characterized Russell Modeste’s alleged relationship with the teenaged girl as “extreme and repulsive.”

Modeste, who’s being

held in custody in Victoria, is charged with sexual assault, sexual interference with a person under 16, and breach of a court order.

Even though he’s been charged, RCMP continue to investigate, said Boccabella, because the girl, who cannot be named, became pregnant and miscarried this past winter.

“There’s widespread belief Mr. Modeste is responsible (for the pregnancy),” he told Judge Brian Klaver during the bail hear-

ing. The two apparently met on the Facebook social media website.

She was 13 years old at the time and he wrote that he was 20.

The girl, in statements provided to police, denied having a sexual relationship with Modeste. Others are unsure and say the two slept in the same room together; they’ve also been seen holding hands, kissing, and witnesses allege he’s repeated groped her buttocks.

Au t h o r i t i e s f i r s t became aware of the two on Jan. 20, when

police were called to assist the Ministry of Children and Families in implementing a safety plan for the girl.

At the same time, the girl’s caregiver wanted Modeste removed from the home. He was arrested outside the residence as he was seen walking hand-inhand with the girl.

Modeste was taken to the Evergreen Shelter after he had signed an agreement to have no contact with the girl.

However, it is alleged the two were in frequent contact with each other, calling and

texting, after Modeste’s arrest.

One of the girl’s instructors also became concerned when the youth was seen repeatedly sending text messages while at school.

The girl allegedly told the woman she was sending messages to “her boyfriend.”

T he woman also informed authorities the girl has some learning difficulties.

Boccabella said Modeste’s original bail

order should be cancelled and he should be held in custody until trial.

Defence lawyer James Hor moth asked the judge to release Modeste on bail with strict conditions. Modeste is a member of the Cowichan First Nation and he could move back to Duncan to reside with family.

Hormoth also said Modeste would abide by a no-go to Campbell River order other than

to attend court, and he would also not use any electronic communication devices.

“The problem, as I see it, is it’s almost impossible to prevent contact through social media,” said Judge Klaver, as he cancelled Modeste’s bail. “There are no conditions I could place him on that would assure no contact.”

Modeste is due back in court, by video, on June 18.

When: June 20, 2012 Time: 2:00 pm to 6:30 pm Where: Campbell River Maritime Heritage Centre, 621 N Island Highway JOHN HART GENERATING STATION REPLACEMENT PROJECT BC Hydro will provide the latest information on the BC Parks Boundary Adjustment, Environmental Assessment, and British Columbia Utilities Commission regulatory processes. We will also provide a project procurement process update.

BC HYDRO

A key part of the regulatory approval processes will be the ongoing consultation with First Nations, and engagement of government agencies and stakeholders.

PROCESS

BC Hydro’s goal is to complete the regulatory processes by spring 2013 and award the construction contract in summer 2013. Project construction would then begin in summer 2013 should the project be approved.

John Hart pipelines, surge towers and generating station

HEBER RIVER DIVERSION DECOMMISSIONING PROJECT This facility is near Gold River and diverted water from the Heber River into the Upper Campbell Reservoir. This summer BC Hydro plans to remove the dam structure, a 3.6 km woodstave pipeline, and the pipeline outlet structure. The entire diversion facility footprint will then be remediated and restored to become part of the surrounding natural environment. The facility has been out of service since November 2006.

BC Hydro is removing the Heber River Diversion due to its poor condition and as a result of the Campbell River Water Use Plan (WUP). The WUP Consultative Committee, made up of First Nations, government agencies, stakeholders and BC Hydro, came to a consensus agreement to remove the facility.

HYDROELECTRIC OPERATIONS BC Hydro will provide an overview on how we consider water use interests across the system, including how we are managing the high snow pack and snow melt. Forecasted Campbell River flows and reservoir levels will be provided.

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

Carol Westrum was thrilled to retire in Campbell River and thought she had found the perfect home – a waterfront view and close to the Sea Walk.

But now she’s thinking otherwise.

With the war mer weather, people have been lured down to the shore along the Sea Walk to enjoy beach fires. The only problem, said Westrum, is that at the end of the evening people aren’t putting their fires out and leaving them to smoulder unattended.

Westrum, who lives in an apartment by the highway, said she and her neighbours breathe in the smoke.

“Acrid smoke from the fires and its lingering effects drift towards and into our homes making it impossible to leave one’s windows or doors open,” Westrum wrote in a letter to city council.

S h e ’s c o n c e r n e d about the impact the smoke is having on her health.

MIRROR FILE

Firefighter Andy Stewart puts out a smouldering and unattended beach fire in Willow Point in Aug. 2006.

“Its effects cause extreme health difficulties, especially for those with lung and breathing conditions,” Westrum said.

Fire Chief Dean Spry confirmed the fire hall has received several calls already this year to attend beach fires that haven’t been put out.

“It’s always a problem when people light them and they put sand on them to put them out,” Spry said.

“They smoulder a bit and the smoke lingers around the beach area.

The problem I see is people don’t put them out properly. If people put a lot of water on them I don’t think the smoke would be an issue, depending on

which way the wind is blowing.”

But Westrum said the smoke is a problem and she wants the city to do something about it.

“I am requesting that the mayor and council consider a bylaw that would ban campfires burning along the sea wall where residences are located,” Westrum said. “A step forward by the city for enacting this bylaw would be a step forward towards a healthier living environment for all citizens.”

Spry doesn’t think a beach fire ban is necessary – at least not in most in areas.

“I think if people did what they’re supposed to do it’s something that can be allowed,”

Spry said. “If you’re burning with dry, clean wood and putting them out after you’re done, I don’t think there would be as big a problem with the smoke.”

However, Spry said it would be worth reviewing beach fires along the shore between Hidden Harbour and Big Rock.

“I would say there’s some consideration for restriction right there,” Spry said. “Properties are right on the ocean and there’s nothing between them and the beach. It’s those properties where I could see there being a problem.”

But between Rotary Park and Willow Point most of the homes are across the highway and Spry said there shouldn’t be a problem as long as people bring a bucket and douse their fires before they leave.

“I’m not sure what council is prepared to do,” Spry said. “But Campbell River is known for its beach fires. It’s advertised when promoting Campbell River.”

City’s carbon neutral plan comes with some cost KRISTEN DOUGLAS

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

City operations must be carbon neutral by year’s end if council wants to fulfil its Climate Action Charter commitments.

The city is required to meet that goal as a signatory to the charter, introduced by the provincial government in 2007.

The city adopted a carbon neutral plan in 2011 which includes the city’s 2008 and 2009 greenhouse gas emissions, emission reduction targets for 2012, 2020 and 2050, and a plan of action for further reductions.

For 2012, the city

targeted a 10 per cent reduction below 2008 greenhouse gas emission levels.

Amber Zirnhelt, the city’s sustainability manager, said the city achieved that and more as corporate greenhouse gas emissions dropped by 12.8 per cent when compared to 2008 levels.

“In 2008, the city’s corporate greenhouse gas emissions were 1,485 tonnes of CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) and in 2011 the emissions have been reduced to 1,300 tonnes of CO2e,” Zirnhelt said. “The actions taken by the city to reduce emissions have resulted in overall sav-

ings for operating costs for our buildings, utilities, and fleet.”

The goal for 2020 is a 35 per cent reduction below 2008 levels and in 2050, an 85 per cent reduction below 2008 levels.

Zirnhelt said the city exceeded its 2012 target through building and utility energy retrofits including lighting; solar panels to heat the water at the RCMP building, downtown

Fire Hall, Sportsplex, and Simms Creek lift station; as well as city vehicle upgrades and introducing five per cent biodiesel for those vehicles.

To achieve carbon neutrality by the end of the year, the city will have to buy offsets or invest in local greenhouse gas emission reduction projects. Or the city can show it’s moving towards being carbon neutral by

opening a savings fund ear-marked for municipal projects.

If the city chooses to purchase offsets it will cost $32,500-$40,000 at the end of 2012, based on the city’s greenhouse gas emission inventories from the past four years and the current price of carbon at $25 per tonne.

As an alternative, the city could invest in projects such as energy efficient buildings for

Our View

Take care of your beach fires Once again, the behaviour of some will jeopardize the privileges of the rest of us. Sitting down on our spectacular kilometre after kilometre of waterfront and cooking We say: It’s one hot dogs over a cheerful beach fire is one of the great things to do of the unique in Campbell River. Watching the privileges we setting sun reflect on the range enjoy here of mountains on the mainland coast across from the east coast of Vancouver Island while enjoying the company of friends and family is a special privilege enjoyed by

many people. Unfortunately, too many people forget to take care of their beach fires, leaving them to “burn out” while they trundle off home oblivious to the potential fire hazard they’ve left behind.

Too often, the fire department has to come in the next morning to extinguish a fire that has become established in the driftwood lining the high tide line.

If people keep being so neglectful, we will all lose the privilege of enjoying a campfire on the beach.

It’s not hard to bring along a container that can douse your fire before you leave it. There’s plenty of water. There’s no reason to leave a fire still burning.

Periodically, the neglected fires result in someone suggesting a beach fire ban as the only way to control this. Hopefully it won’t ever come to that but you have to wonder if it eventually will and what a shame that will be.

So, if you’re going to have a beach fire, take a container with you so you can thoroughly douse the fire when you’re done. A plain old ice cream bucket will do. And light the fire below the high tide line, not in amongst the driftwood. It’s not that much extra effort in return for the privilege – not the right, the privilege – of enjoying a beach fire.

Letters

Don’t give lights credit Re: Irksome Dogwood Lights are showing benefits (Mirror Wed., June 6) There is no doubt according to the ICBC figures that there has been a dramatic drop in traffic accidents in Campbell River between 2007 and 2011. I feel, however, that one should be cautious about attributing this drop to the Dogwood light system, however keen Mr. Hadfield may be to take the credit.

1) The drop in accidents along the whole of Dogwood corridor, including the junctions that have not seen any changes has been from 127 accidents to 70. This is just under a third of the total drop from 394 to 252.

2) The decrease in accidents was already apparent in 2009 (by 96), the year the lights were installed. The drop in accidents along the Dogwood corridor that year was 36.

The ICBC figures need to be interpreted properly and other factors that may account for the drop in accident figures need to be considered (changed driving habits? traffic density? population?). It is premature to use them to justify a project of dubious value.

It’s so redundant around here to say “it’s such a beautiful place” because there are so many beautiful places around here. But Small Inlet is another one of them.

On the northwest coast of Quadra Island is a gouge. That gouge is Granite Bay which indents into the wild northern land mass of Quadra Island. Extending further inland from Granite Bay is a narrow crack extending deeper into the northern Quadra uplands which opens up into a longish bay.

The narrow passage makes Small Inlet fun to paddle into like I did two or three years ago with a group of Venturers. But I first paddled into there in the late 1990s, invited as part

of an effort to publicize the need to complete the provincial park that had been established in 1996.

Well, that effort continues as we saw in the Mirror last week. A campaign to “save the heart of Quadra parks” is bringing in CBC personality Bob McDonald, host of the Mother Corp.’s radio science show Quirks and Quarks. McDonald will be the guest speaker at a fundraising dinner and silent auction at Quadra’s Heriot Bay Inn on Saturday. The Quadra Island Stewardship and Conservancy Association is spearheading an effort to raise $200,000 to help the province buy a 365 ha. property that would protect the head and shoreline of Small Inlet. Small Inlet and Octopus

Islands provincial parks touch each other and stretch across part of the southern shore of Small Inlet and Waiatt Bay (Octopus Islands park) and the steeply rising hillside climbing out of the inlets. But only part of the shoreline is protected as part of the parks. There’s the northern shore and uplands that could be part of the parks, including a lowland portage trail that links the two bays.

The website www.quadraparks.ca says, “A privately owned 395 hectare property spans the height of land between Small Inlet on the west and Waiatt Bay on the east. It takes in much of the shoreline and viewsheds of the bay and inlet, and has been intended for parkland for many

years.”

The land is currently privately owned. The B.C. government signed a conditional $6.15 million purchase agreement for the land which it promised to acquire 16 years ago. The Ministry of the Environment is working on the ways to secure the money and Quadra Islanders are mounting the $200,000 campaign to help out before the Sept. 28 closing date of the deal.

It’s a great opportunity to complete a natural park boundary in a landscape that is only partially protected at the moment.

It’s a beautiful place. For more information see www.quadraparks. ca and www.sierraclub.bc.ca.

2011 was a year of big expenditures KRISTEN DOUGLAS CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

The city operated on a $65 million budget in 2011 – a year that saw the completion of several major city projects, according to the 2011 Annual City Report released last Thursday.

The document includes the city’s audited financial report conducted by MNP LLP, which found the city’s financial house to be in order.

“In our opinion the consolidated financial statements present fairly...the City of Campbell River as at Dec. 31, 2011,” wrote MNP LLP in the audit.

According to the report, the city’s net financial assets at the end of 2011 were $18.4 million. Expenses

for the year totalled $47.6 million, which included policing, water, sewer, transport and public health.

Revenues were $55.7 million, with $26.29 million of that coming from property taxes.

The city was still in the midst of collecting property taxes from homeowners as of Dec. 31, 2011 because there were three property assessment appeals still pending. According to the annual report, the outcome of those appeals could change the amount of property taxes collected by the city this year and in future years. However, the city has a reserve (savings) fund ear-marked for tax refunds. It currently has a balance of $250,000.

The city forg ave $330,757 in municipal property taxes to a total of 95 non-profit and charitable organizations such as the Campbell River Head Injury Society, River City Players, the Willow Point Lions Club, the Campbell River Tyee Judo Club, and local churches.

The Annual Report not only outlines the city’s financial statements but it also highlights a year full of projects and achievements.

Last year saw the completion of the Highway 19A upgrades between Hilchey and Rockland roads as well as the 1,500 foot runway extension at Campbell River Airport.

The city also renovated the Sybil Andrews Cottage in Willow Point; completed the Simms Creek lift station along Highway 19A; and installed free-standing outdoor washrooms next to the Campbell River Visitor Centre and Art Gallery building.

As for achievements, the city snagged a MarCom gold award for excellence in communications surrounding the Highway 19A upgrade project and was awarded a provincial Solar Community award for leadership in solar technology; solar

The city also received a $55,154 grant from the Federation of Canadian Municipalities to support the city’s tidal power feasibility study. The study looked at using tidal energy to power the lights at the fishing pier and at the Maritime Heritage Centre. Unfortunately the study found the wave speeds around the pier are not fast enough to power the two facilities, but the area is an ideal test and research site.

Metal theft suspect sought On Friday afternoon, Campbell River RCMP received a report of a theft of metal from a yard on Holm Road.

The metal consisted of vehicle body parts, logging truck parts and boat items. The times were found

at a local metal recycling shop.

Police are following up with information obtained from the owner.

Power lines fall, no one injured A dump truck driver was fortunate to escape uninjured after power lines came down on his

vehicle.

The incident occurred Friday, around 11 a.m., in the parking lot of the Eagles Hall on 14th Ave. The driver was working when the truck caught the lines which came down on the truck.

The accident did result in a temporary power outage in the

immediate area.

Impaired drivers busted A worker at a local fast food restaurant called police on June 7, after an impaired driver thad gone through the drive through.

Police were able to stop the vehicle and found a 22-year-

old female driver who displayed symptoms of alcohol consumption.

She was given a road side breath test which resulted in a three-day driving prohibition. Her vehicle was also impounded.

On Friday, at 10 p.m., an officer stopped a motorcycle which

didn’t have its headlight on.

The 53-year-old Campbell River rider showed signs of impairment and blew twice the legal limit.

Two more impaired drivers were caught on Saturday.

During a roadside check, around 12:30 a.m., a 36-year-old

woman was arrested after she blew more than two times the legal limit.

Then, at 2:30 a.m., a 47-year-old man from Langley was stopped after he drover through a red light.

He was also arrested after blowing more than two times the legal limit.

Thief gets break due to condition PAUL RUDAN

CAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR

2X5 2X5 BC SENIORS SENIORS BC

steal two professional spray paint guns valued at $2,000.

Then, when Seitz wanted more booze, they drove to the Willows. Video surveillance footage shows Seitz using the rear end of the truck to smash the entrance while Jurriet allegedly ran inside and grabbed bottles of alcohol.

After being stopped by police at the Shell Station, officers searched the pickup and found two bottles of Fireball liquor and a bottle of vodka.

The truck was also heavily damaged with telltale yellow paint markings from the barricade pillars outside the paint store.

Seitz’ conviction for theft over $5,000 stems from a July 21, 2010, incident which occurred in his hometown of Port Hardy.

During the night, Seitz stole a trailered boat from Pacificus Biological Services.

The boat and trailer were later found by police, attached to a red Jeep on Grey Street, parked outside Seitz’ residence.

Seitz tried to explain to police that he had simply taken the wrong boat and why would he steal it and then park it in front of his home?

Earlier, however, Seitz had enlisted the help of a friend to get the boat started. He had also told his buddy that he was confiscating the boat because a

$10,000 drug debt had not been paid.

As Seitz tried to talk his way out of his predicament, the police officer quipped it was, “one of the worst lies he’s ever heard.”

The boat was found heavily scratched and the ignition was also damaged. As part of his plea agreement, Seitz will repay Pacificus Biological $1,542 in restitution for the damages.

During the first year of his conditional sentence, Seitz will be under house arrest 24/7 and cannot consume alcohol or nonprescription drugs.

He can go out with the permission of his supervisor as well as to work or for medical

appointments.

During the second year of the sentence, Seitz is bound by a 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew.

S u p re m e Ju s t i c e Christopher Grauer said a jail sentence would nor mally be appropriate in Seitz’ case, but given his medical condition, the judge approved of the sentence. Sutton noted that Seitz has struggled with alcoholism, but he’s been “clean and sober” for the past year. “ O r d i n a r i l y, I wouldn’t look for a conditional sentence order in the circumstances before me; I would look to a sentence of custody,” said Justice Grauer. “I wish you only the best.”

A drunken thief who tried to smash two business entrances by using a truck has been given a conditional sentence due to his poor health.

Lorne Guy Seitz will basically be under house arrest for two years less a day after pleading guilty to two counts of break and enter, and theft over $5,000.

The 46-year-old has hepatitis C which has caused serious liver problems. He pleaded guilty to the charges on Monday in B.C. Supreme Court in the hope he could get a conditional sentence so he can undergo a year-long treatment program in Campbell River.

“His life is on the line…he knows how important the treatment is,” said his lawyer, Chantelle Sutton.

She added that if Seitz does not abide by the conditional sentence, he will likely find himself back in jail which would be “a death sentence.”

According to Crown prosecutor Bruce Goddard, on April 30, 2011, Campbell River RCMP received a report of

two men using a pickup truck in an attempt to pull the doors off the General Paint Store, located at Discovery Harbour Mall.

When police arrived shortly before 6 a.m., the truck was gone.

The front entrance was damaged, but it appeared no one was able to get inside.

Then another call came in of a similar vehicle being used to try and break into the Willows Pub Cold Beer and Wine Store on Rockland Road.

Once again, by the time officers arrived, the culprits were gone, but they had a good description of the truck as well as the licence plate number provided by a janitor who was cleaning the pub and witnessed the break-in.

Later, when a patrolling officer spotted the suspect vehicle and stopped it at the Shell Gas station at the corner of the Inland Island Highway and Willis Road.

Driving the vehicle was Roderick Jurriet, who is well-known to police, with a highly intoxicated Seitz in the passenger seat.

The pickup was taken without consent from Jurriet’s stepfather, but charges against Jurriet were dropped when he agreed to testify against Seitz.

In a statement given to police, Jurriet said Seitz wanted to break into the paint store to

We have mortgage insurance with our bank.

Isn’t that enough?

What are the signs & symptoms of an infected wound?

If you have absolutely no debt, do not use credit cards, do not have a line of credit (including no Home Equity Lines of Credit), pay cash for everything, and have substantial savings for any emergencies – then the bank Darlene Garat coverage is probably adequate.

Financial Advisor Most life insurance bought through a lender is meant to just cover the balance owing on the mortgage. 100% must go to pay the bank to eliminate that debt – with nothing going the surviving family members. So, if there is any chance that your family will be left with debt and/or no savings to live on, and affordability is swaying your decision, a laddered life insurance policy is a better option.

It will ensure survivors’ don’t have to sell the family home to pay the bills, and that the insurance coverage always matches your financial situation.

All open wounds are contaminated to some degree from the time the injury occurs and there’s always a risk of infection until the wound is completely healed. Signs of an infection may appear as early as one day after the injury or several Jennifer Comeau days later. Infections can be Branch Manager recognized by the following: • Pain & tenderness around the wound.

• Heat around the affected area and, sometimes, a fever.

• Redness around the wound site and/or red streaks extending from the wound site.

• Pus beneath the skin or draining from the wound.

• Swelling of the infected area and/or the lymph nodes close to the wound site.

Signs of fever, swollen and sore lymph nodes and red streaks extending from the wound are signs of a serious infection and require treatment by a physician as soon as possible.

Preventing a pond from getting green should always be the first step.... but even with the best prevention plan we can still end up with green ponds.

There are products available that will get rid of your “green water” temporarily. Laguna Clear Fast is an excellent liquid product that you Sarah Kirk treat the pond with, it causes the Owner green single cell algae that is causing the problem to “clump” and therefore allow your filter to remove it. You can use this product fairly often as need necessitates.

Add a Laguna UV sterilizer....it’s simple and your pond will be crystal clear! Installation is easy...you “interupt” the pond tubing that you already have, and put in a sterilizer...it’s really that simple.

A couple things to consider when adding a UV sterilizer is the flow of water you have going through your tubing now. If your flow is too high, it will not work properly nor if it is too low..... there are a few guidelines to flow regarding UV sterilizers.... follow them and enjoy a beautiful crystal clear pond ALWAYS! There are sizes for every pond!

Our Canine friends make great companions but they often develop a bad odor. There are many reasons for your dog’s unique smell, but one is area that is commonly overlooked is his or her Ear’s! You can usually recognize an ear infection by seeing redness, debris and an odor in the ear. Ear infections usually stem from over-production of wax, which occurs in response to irritation. The moisture of the wax promotes bacterial and yeast growth. A yeast infection is very stinky smell which usually is the cause of your dog’s unique odor. Most ear infections are cleared up simply with professional cleaning followed by medication at home. If there is only mild debris in the ear canals, simple disinfection and washing of the ear is adequate; however, in many cases, a full ear flush is needed to even examine the eardrum.

If your canine friend is getting ear infections often you may want to ask your veterinarian about the possibility of an underlying condition such as allergies or a thyroid dysfunction.

Does taking calcium supplements increase my risk of having a heart attack?

I wrote an article about this in June 2011 (see it at www.

DrPincott.com) and there have been numerous studies since about a possible increase risk of heart attack with calcium supplementation.

The answer may be that calcium supplementation should never be Dr. Ingrid Pincott ND Naturopathic Physician taken without magnesium and other minerals such as vitamin D3 and vitamin K2. These are commonly prescribed together by naturopathic physicians. All calcium supplements are not created equal and its popular use as a single nutrient antacid for decades is not the way nature provided us with calcium.

This latest study was published in the Journal “Heart” in June 2012, a review of the EPIC-Heidelberg study published in July 2011 in the Europe Journal of Nutrition entitled “Vitamin/mineral supplementation and cancer, cardiovascular, and all-cause mortality in a German prospective cohort.” This study was not designed to research the effects of calcium on the risk of heart attacks.

Warren Buffett once said “Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful.” However, if you are a little of both, you should Peter Garat be investing in a long term portfolio with low to moderate risk funds, Certified Financial Planner rather than speculating on the stock market. Economists are leaning towards dividend producing mutual funds right now, as they are continually buying more of themselves, adding units when prices are low, and seeing gains when those unit prices increase, minimizing overall volatility. However, not all dividend funds are built the same, and not all are lower risk – it is dependent on the holdings within the funds. In these markets it is essential that your Financial Advisor has a good grasp of your personal risk level, and overall financial goals. And note, if your Advisor promises unrealistic returns on low risk investments, you should be prepared for unrealized gains and uncomfortable losses as well.

Hearing loss and Alzheimer’s disease – the connection.

Help!! My puppy is chewing everything in my house!!!!

The symptoms of untreated hearing loss and Alzheimer’s disease are nearly identical.

• Depression, anxiety, Martin & Jana Jurek feelings of isolation Hearing Instrument • Reduced communication ability Practitioners • Reduced cognitive input • Inappropriate responses • Reduced mental scores • Denial, heightened defensiveness, negativity • Distrust and Paranoia (especially belief that others are talking about them) Researchers at Colombia–Presbyterian Hospital, in a postmortem investigation of patients previously diagnosed with AD, found a 45% misdiagnosis rate.

The most commonly used screening examinations are administered using spoken words to older adults. These tests assume normal hearing. However, 36% of the population between 65 and 84 years of age has hearing loss and 66% or more of those age 85 years and above have hearing loss. To rule out misdiagnosis a comprehensive hearing evaluation should be a part of everyone’s regular health care.

Call to book a free hearing evaluation for you or your loved one.

First of all, chewing is a very normal and natural thing for any puppy or dog to do.

Unfortunately they often chew the wrong thing like the couch or shoes because the owner hasn’t trained their puppy what he can chew and aren’t supervising the puppy properly. Use a kennel or a gated off area to restrict the puppy roaming around and finding something to chew on when Cathy Merrithew you can’t be watching him.

Invest in at least 2 (or more) KONG toys, they’re hollow so they can be stuffed with the puppy’s meals or treats, give one to your puppy when you go out, he’ll work at getting the food out of it and tire himself out….I also love the Buster Cube - a treat dispensing toy that’ll entertain your puppy for hours and hours. If you find him chewing the wrong thing, redirect to what you want him to chew, and make sure not to leave anything where he can reach it….

I’d also suggest upping the exercise your puppy is getting, a “Tired Puppy is a Good Puppy!”

Most puppies or adult dogs don’t get enough physical and/or mental exercise, and that’s why they find things to keep themselves busy. If they can’t chew, they might decide to bark or dig instead…..Try hiding treats out in the yard and sending him to go find them, anything to let him use his nose for hunting will certainly wear him out plus he’ll have fun doing it! A walk where he can sniff and investigate will tire him out more than chasing a ball or Frisbee…

Wash your hands. During high allergy season, pollen is everywhere.

You get it on your hands opening a car door, running your hands through your hair, or touching other outdoor surfaces. Rubbing your eyes with those pollen-coated Victor Choo hands will only irritate them more.

Use saline rinses or artificial Pharmacist/Owner tears. This can soothe the eyes and help keep you from rubbing them.You can also apply cold compresses to find relief.

Wear sunglasses to cut irritants by one-half.

Take medications. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about which antihistamines or over-the-counter medications to use. For best effects, use medications throughout the season, not just once in awhile. Remember to use before you are exposed.

Ask us at Peoples Drug Mart, we can help.

Gurdeep Sidhu, CGA In situations where there is a Notary Public diminished mental capacity, then an individual can prepare a basic Representation Agreement to cover their financial matters such as payment of regular bills, purchase of groceries, dealing with pension matters, and tax returns. However, major decisions such as the sale of a property, transfer of or cashing out investments, etc., can not be done through a basic Representaion Agreement.

In situations where an individual lacks the capacity to make a Power of Attorney, he/she may be able to make a Representation Agreement because the test of capacity for a Representation Agreement is not as comprehensive as when someone prepares a Power of Attorney.

Snap, Crackle, Pop! “How does Physiotherapy Spinal Manipulation work for neck and back pain?

Spinal manipulation has been used throughout history, including the father of modern medicine, Hippocrates (460 BC – 370 BC). A Manipulative Physiotherapist is a highly Jason Kowalchuk, trained professional that uses Physiotherapist his hands to assess, diagnose, and treat restrictions in the spine. These hands on techniques help to restore normal motion, reduce pain and muscle tension, and improve function. Not all spine problems require manipulation, but may respond better to a combination of other physiotherapy techniques such as: joint mobilization, exercise, postural correction, electrical modalities, or acupuncture. If you have neck or back pain, ask a Physiotherapist if manipulation is right for you.

Correct pH is a critical but often overlooked aspect when growing in hydroponics, coco coir, or Sunshine/Pro Mix. Put simply, the pH of your fertilizer determines how much of the mineral elements Christa Fernau are available and accessible for the plants.

Acid loving plants like rhododendrons and hydrangeas require lower pH. Tomatoes require slightly acid conditions, while peonies and sunflowers love lime, which ‘sweetens’ the soil, or raises the pH. There are a variety of ways to test for pH in your growing medium. pH test strips or electronic equipment are easily available. Or, collect a cup of soil from your area of concern, mix it with 2 cups of distilled water, and bring that in to our shop, and we’d be happy to test it for you.

A legal Power of Attorney can only be made if an individual has the capacity to understand the Power of Attorney, its effects, what assets one has, and various other matters.

The Licensed Optician will subjectively and objectively verify the accurance of the prescription as reproduced in the eyeglasses and make certain that the person’s visual acuity is what was anticipated by the prescriber.

Opticians are also trained to take proper anatomical measurements, make appropriate initial and ongoing Susan Ward adjustments to eyewear.

Dangers of Internet eyeglasses. Wearing eyeglasses with the wrong prescription will cause some very unpleasant side effects that are really not worth suffering through just to save a few dollars on buying eyeglasses online. Just think, how would you like to suffer from nausea, headaches, blurred vision, strained eyes, dizziness and vertigo? Your reluctance to choose the services of a Licensed Optician and suffer the side effects instead, can cause harm, not only to yourself but to others as well.

The Internet seller tells the customer to go to the local licensed professional for upkeep, maintenance and troubleshoting thus creaming off what then becomes easy money and leaving the real work of dispensing - the clean-up - to the licensed professional.

Private donations allow priority medical equipment to be replaced faster than if government funding alone was relied on.Your help enables Stacey Marsh improvements to patient care Executive Director to happen more quickly. The idea of supplementing public funding for health care through private donations has a long tradition — and is common practice across Canada. The reality is that increased needs for modernized medical equipment make it impossible for government to replace equipment as promptly as desired. With your help, the Campbell River Hospital Foundation helps fund nearly 20% of capital medical equipment purchases for the Campbell River Hospital.

To spa space bar or Not space bar? That to spa is the Question.

Some people still think that the space bar is the mo most important key on the keyboard when wh it comes to formatting a document.

Sharilyn Irving People use tthe space bar to center text on a pag page, they use the space bar to create ind indents, and they use the space bar to create tables and columns.This, This I guarantee, drives everyone who works in a print shop, copy shop, oor any kind of service bureau that deals with customers files, crazy.

The space ba bar is used for one thing and one thing only – to separate two words.

In MS Word, Publisher, and every other text publishing/creation program, the there is the ability to format text, which includes centering.

Also, you can use the tab button on your computer to create indents and most pro programs these days give you the option of creating tables to make tabl tables for your data, lists and recipes.

The reason I stress using these options as opposed to using the space bar is tthat when you take a document in to a service bureau for printing, tthe formatting stays truer to what you had intended.

This will ens ensure that your prints, copies, etc. will look like what you had in mind rather than have words all over the space.

When starting an older carburetor motor with a choke, you push in the key on most models, which causes a flapper valve to block the flow of air to the carburetor pulling gas directly into the motor.

Kevan McLean, Owner/Operator But a primer is an electric solenoid that releases every time the key switch is pushed in to prime the engine. With one push a short shot of gas goes directly into the carburetor body, and holding the key in continuously shoots fuel into the carburetor to start the motor.

On fuel injected motors, you turn the key, wait 2 to 3 minutes until the computer pressurizes the fuel system, then you can start the motor with no choke needed.

Carihi musicians rocked the Paramount June 4 for the annual music program showcase and fundraiser Presence.

Carihi musicians have Presence Stars of Tomorrow (From left) Rikki Laverdure, Andi-lyn Krieger, Dayna Amelia, Kaylee Mascia of Kathy Mascia School of Dance are preparing for their end of the year recital Stars of Tomorrow 2012 at the Tidemark Theatre on Saturday at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. The performacne showcases students from five-years-old to adults performing Tap, ballet, pointe and jazz routines. Tickets can be purchased at the Tidemark box office, and are: Adults – $17; Children/Senior – $14.

The Paramount music hall was packed June 4 for Carihi’s musical showcase Presence.

Hundreds piled in to support and watch Carhi musicians perform music they created and recorded in a unique class called Music Composition offered at Carhi. Presence showcased the material these students have worked on all year as well as too raise funds for Carihi’s music program. The concert headlined Carihi band Who Is Barbosa with performances from the music composition class.

Not only did the night have a full audience but it also raised an impressive sum.

The concert usually held at Carihi was organized by student volunteers partially due to the job action issues that arose this year. Kyell Erickson and Mitchell Robertson took the ini-

tiative for putting on this concert.

“We wanted to keep the tradition of Presence going as we feel that it is only fair we and our peers get to show off what we’ve been working on all year. When the opportunity to have an all ages show at the Paramount Music Hall arose and I presented Gary (Manager of the Paramount) with the idea of “Presence” it really took off. Gary was just as excited as us,” said Kyell Erickson lead vocalist for Who Is Barbosa.

Having the show at the Paramount Music Hall is something brand new to Carihi and with its success this year has great hopes to become a yearly tradition.

“The show went fantastic, everyone who played was spot on. Everything went smooth and according to plan,” said Who Is Barbosa’s lead guitarist Collin Massie.

Make it a summer Murder and mayhem in Deadwood will of art for the kids at benefit River Spirit dragon boat team the Art Gallery The Campbell River Art Gallery is offering two creative week-long camps for children ages 7 to 12 this summer.

Summer art instructor and Assistant Curator Jessica Blue will run the art camps with a focus on painting, as well as sculpture and collage. Blue is a University of Victoria student majoring in Visual Arts who brings a wealth of fresh ideas and experience to the table. The programs run from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. each day, so they’re perfect for children whose parents work during the day.

The first camp, Acrylic Adventures, runs from July 23 – 27. Students will work mainly with acrylic paint and look at a variety of artists and art movements each day to learn different styles of painting. Participants will discuss and be exposed to different forms of painting through various art activities.

The second camp, Art Extravaganza, is set for Aug. 13 – 17. Participants will work with a variety of tools and techniques in areas such as painting, collage, drawing, and sculpture. There will also be a Sharpie pen tie dying activity, so bring an article of white or light-colored clothing, like a shirt or pair of socks, to tie dye. There will be an outdoor component to both camps, including field trips to Robert Ostler Park to sketch.

All materials are included so kids can just bring their imagination and enjoy creating beautiful works of art in a fun group setting.

The cost for each camp is $165 for Gallery members and $175 for non-members. You can register by phone at 250-287-2261 or in person at the Campbell River Art Gallery. For more information, check out www.crartgallery.ca. All Children’s Summer Art Programs are sponsored by Grieg Seafood.

The Best Little . . . Dancehall in Deadwood is a classic whodunit that will entertain and befuddle.

On June 22, River Spirit presents a night of murder and mayhem in the Wild West coast aka The Maritime Heritage Centre.

Written by Susan Haley of Haley productions, the murder mystery tells the tale of a downtrodden, almost forgotten town that once thrived and prospered when folks thought gold was in “them thar” hills. Now the hills contain nothing but dirt so the town lost not only its fortune but its fame and its population. Now Deadwood is just an occasional stagecoach stopover and a haven for outlaws. It is just another night in Deadwood, only this time it will more deadly than usual. Will you be able to figure out whodunit?

The event begins at 6 p.m.

in the dancehall where you will receive a complimentary glass of wine. Throughout the evening you will be part of the action interpreting clues, enjoying delicious hot and cold appetizers prepared by Quay West and bid-

John Frederick Parkes

On June 3rd, John left the body that could no longer sustain the energetic man that he had always been. With the ever present love of his wife, children and grandchildren he left us with our blessings to continue to pursue new experiences.

John was predeceased by his brother Harold and sisters Gladys, Alice and Ivy. He is survived by his wife Olive, siblings Alec and Jean, children David (Jenny), Valerie (Bill), Joanne and his grandchildren Laura, Sarah, Theresa, John and Tristin.

John and Olive came to Canada from England in 1953 and lived in Victoria until 1991 when they retired to Campbell River, lured in large part by the Storey Creek Golf Course, where he was member for many years. John pursued many interests in his life; he loved sailing and was an avid, at times fanatical, golfer. In recent years he embraced technology and photography and he always had a project on the go. John loved life. When the music played he was the first to get up and dance.

John we will miss you, but we know you are in a place that allows you to enjoy your passion for the beauty and experiences that you embraced in your life. A Celebration of John’s life will be held on Saturday, June 16th from 2:00 to 5:00 at the Campbell River Community Centre at 401 – 11th Avenue. In lieu of flowers please donate to the lung association.

Lucas gives back to his adopted home O n a quiet Sunday morning in 1972, Lucas Stiefvater saw the Vancouver skyline with the snow capped Coastal Mountains reflecting golden in the distance and knew that he had arrived.

Two months earlier, he and is friend Norbert landed in New York on a flight from Germany.

They bought two Greyhound Bus tickets, $99 for 99 days, boarded the bus and proceeded to travel across the United States, Mexico and Canada. They slept on the bus, showered where they could, and ate cinnamon buns in every bus station.

It was an adventure tailor made for two young men from Germany.

As it turned out it was the beginning of a 40-year adventure.

When they stamped Stiefvater’s passport at the Peach Arch border crossing, he

thought he was here for a season. Despite growing up in a Black Forest guesthouse and his extensive training in hospitality, Stiefvater’s first jobs were night watchman at the Vancouver Holiday Inn and banquet waiter at the Georgia Hotel, where nearly everyone spoke German.

He studied English during the day and within a year he and his German girlfriend Annemarie moved

to Cloverdale, where he became manager/ partner for a local café. He and Annemarie eventually married and raised two sons Daniel and Jordan.

Over the years, Stiefvater owned and operated several successful businesses including the Copper Kettle Restaurant chain in Vancouver, Clayquout Lodge on Stubbs Island in Tofino, Aspen Hotel Smithers and eventually the Kingfisher Resort and Spa in the Comox Valley.

“Canada is my home!” says Stiefvater.

“When I look back over the last 40 years I am in awe! That boy growing up in Wieden, Germany never dreamed that his life would turn out like this and that he would enjoy the kind of success I have!”

Stiefvater now owns two properties in Campbell River, Ocean Resort, Vancouver Island’s wellness cen-

tre and spa, and Herons Landing Hotel. He and his current partner Cheryl Levine, live on the Ocean Resort property enjoying a rich and full life together.

“It feels right to celebrate this moment in my life. I am very grateful to Canada, and to the Comox Valley and Campbell River communities.

I want to give something back, on this my 40th year in Canada,”, explains Stiefvater.

In order to mark this celebration, Stiefvater and Levine are hosting an open house and barbeque on Friday from 5-8 p.m. at Ocean Resort.

Guests will be free

to tour the facilities, walk the labyrinth and enjoy a delicious barbequed dinner.

Tickets for the event are $20 per person.

All proceeds go to the Eureka House in Courtenay and the Beacon Club in Campbell River(both organizations support individuals with mental illness). Stiefvater will match the proceeds from ticket sales and the raffles dollar for dollar.

“It is a honour to give back.”, says Stiefvater. “We are hoping to that the community will come out and help us celebrate!” For more information or to RSVP call Ocean Resort at 250 923 4281.

Big scrap is on to be best fundraiser for the Campbell River Hospital Foundation

KRISTEN DOUGLAS/THE MIRROR

Local businesses are encouraging the community to donate their scrap metal for a good cause. Pictured from left are, Stacey Marsh and Alana Caldwell (Hospital Foundation), Kevin Blomgren (Finning), Katie Barton and Rick Coombs (ABC Recycling), Jeff Schmidt (AJ Forsyth), Ryan Mennie and Bill Cymbala (Eagle), Natalie Clark (Nyrstar), and Jason Decksheimer (City of Campbell River). Scrap metal can be dropped off at two community bins to raise money for the Campbell River Hospital Foundation.

Managing Your Money 4x10 Graduating into 4x10 a new ¿nancial reality Congratulations on your graduation. Welcome to the real world. It’s time to pay back those loans you and your parents lined up to pay for your education. It’s also time to ¿nd a job, pay for new expenses like furniture and rent, and to put money aside for bigger purchases to come like a car and maybe a home.

Post-grad ¿nancial pressures can be overwhelming, both for the grads and their parents who may still be providing ¿nancial support. The newly minted grad wants ¿nancial stability and, sooner rather than later, ¿nancial independence.

Here are the key ¿nancial issues you need to address post-haste, post-grad.

Repaying student loans During your school years, you may have different loans with different lenders that will require separate payments to each lender. These tips will help you manage them: It can seem easier to consolidate multiple student loans into one standard loan and one simple payment. But consider that convenience might cost you more in the long run because student loans often charge a lower interest rate than loans through a ¿nancial institution.

of studies before repayment is required. For Canada student loans, you must begin repayment six months after ceasing to be a full-time student; provincial grace periods vary by province but, in some cases, are as long as a year.

• Before beginning repayment, check your eligibility for loan forgiveness and keep more money in your pocket.

Make sure you apply if you are eligible.

• You will be able to claim a non-refundable federal tax credit of 15% on the interest you pay each year on your student loans.

But you can’t claim the credit if your loan has been combined with another kind of loan.

• Important! Your student loan repayment history becomes part of your

your credit rating.

Reach your life and ¿nancial goals by starting now, with an effective personal budget and savings plan. Even with all the competing demands on your limited income, the best strategy is to build a regular amount for savings into your monthly budget that rises as your income increases.

Good ¿nancial habits are the key to longterm ¿nancial success.

Ravens clear several hurdles in tournament The Campbell River Advanced Power Marine Midget B Ravens lacrosse team put up a valiant effort in a Victoria tournament last weekend despite the loss of their number one goaltender.

The Ravens began the Matt Underwood Tournament at a disadvantage as their goalie, Bailey Robinson, was injured in a league game in Comox.

Runner Nathan Hoff stepped in, playing three of his six games between the posts.

Hoff played in net the first game which put the team down one runner but they were also short three players that had some traffic issues en route to the arena and one player that was serving a game suspension.

First game of the tournament was against the Prince George Posse. The Ravens seemed to be lacking in scoring as the Posse were up 7-2 at the end of the second period. The Ravens outscored Prince George in the third period five goals to two but it wasn’t enough as the Ravens lost 9-7.

Later that same day, the Ravens were up late to take on the Port Coquitlam Saints. Tied 2-2, the Ravens dominated the second period and held the Saints scoreless with great defence by Ryan Smith and Steven Dykhuisen. The Ravens didn’t score any goals in the third period and held on to the lead, winning the game 6-4.

Next up for the Ravens was a match against the Cowichan Valley Thunder on Saturday morning.

Final score for the Ravens was 8-2. Defensive efforts of Tara Dickson and Dylan Sparling were key in not allowing the Thunder to enter the Ravens zone.

After an early morning start, the players resumed their play Saturday evening against the West Shore Whalers 2 team. Campbell River opened the scoring and went on to win 6-2, which ensured the Ravens top spot in their pool.

In the semi-finals, the Ravens faced off against the Westshore Whalers I team. The game was a seesaw battle but the Ravens came out on the losing end of a 5-4 game. With the loss, the Ravens would have to play for third place. Their opponent?

The Westshore Whalers 2 team that they had beat Saturday in a very close game.

The game started with some close competition but in period two the Ravens started to take flight with goals by Anthony Vigernon,Lucas Marriot Spencer, Steven Dykhuisen, and Ryan Smith.

The Whalers startred to get into penalty trouble near the end of the game and were not able to score in the third period. Scoring for the Ravens in the third period to end the game 8-3 were Colton Edwards, Smith and Griffin Whyley.

Gardening tips to avoid injury and discomfort It’s that time of year again when you can dig your hands into the dirt, spread seeds over the freshly turned earth, and smell the delicious scent of green plants growing.

Gardening is very healthy, both physically and mentally. In addition to providing exercise, gardening delivers health benefits in the fresh foods you eat and in the calming presence of flowers in your environment.

To get the most out of gardening’s health benefits, it’s a good idea to do a bit of stretching to help avoid injury or irritating existing conditions while out in the garden. Here are some tips to stay healthy: Stretch those muscles Heading out into the garden is just like going for a jog or visiting the gym.

Before you grab all your gardening tools, practice some full-body stretches to warm up your muscles.

Target your arms, legs and back, because the muscles in these areas will be put to good use while you’re planting, weeding and watering. And before you finish for the day, do some more stretching to help loosen any muscles that tightened during your gardening work.

Banish bending Many Americans suffer from chronic back pain, which can put a damper on the gardening experience.

Consider installing raised garden beds, which allow you to garden without have to bend over. And container gardens can be placed on tables or deck railings to make it easy to reach plants.

Hand and wrist protection a must Weeding, hoeing, raking, shoveling - the repetitive motions of gardening can lead to hand and wrist pain, and worsen existing conditions such as arthritis. Taking steps to minimize irritation and discomfort while you work can help ensure your gardening outdoors a lot during the warm, tasks don’t create aches summer months, it’s important to or worsen pain. protect your skin from insect bites Keep skin protected and sunburn. While most insect bites Because gardening keeps a person are just an irritation, sunburn can

cause serious, long-term skin damage. Use insect repellent and sunscreen that blocks both UVA and UVB rays. Also wear a wide-brimmed, lightweight hat and sunglasses to protect your eyes and keep the sun off your head.

Lift carefully Between the heavy bags of soil, the many tools needed, or full baskets of vegetables being carried into the kitchen for processing, lifting is a common labor when gardening. Remember to lift from a squatting position, with your back straight, so that your legs do the work, not your back. When kneeling down, use gardening kneepads or even just a rolled up towel to cushion your joints from the hard, damp ground. Remember to minimize twisting motions that can inure your back and joints.

Enjoy the healthful benefits of gardening this summer. Follow these simple precautions to keep safe and injury-free so you can play in your garden until the snow falls.

Eat well to reduce your risk of cancer â&#x20AC;&#x201C; top 10 list

This checklist is based on the November 2007 food and nutrition recommendations from the World Cancer Research Fund and the American Institute for Cancer Research. Experts worldwide were involved in reviewing the science behind food and cancer prevention to come up with key recommendations.

Promise yourself you will make at least one of these changes in your diet to reduce your risk of cancer. â&#x20AC;˘ Eat a variety of vegetables and fruit each day. Try berries (fresh or frozen) broccoli, cabbage, citrus fruits, cooked tomatoes and bok choy. â&#x20AC;˘ Eat whole grains (whole-wheat pasta and breads, barley, wild rice) and/or legumes (peas, beans, lentils) with every meal. â&#x20AC;˘Limit refined, starchy foods (white bread, white pasta, white rice, processed cereals). â&#x20AC;˘Eat very little, if any, processed meats (luncheon meats such as salami and ham, sausages, hot dogs, bacon, canned meats). â&#x20AC;˘Eat less than 500 grams of cooked red meat a week. That means eating less than seven Food Guide servings (75 g or 2 ½ oz) of red meat per week. Remember to eat a variety

of lower fat choices from the meat and alternative food group including two fish serving per week and plenty of legumes (beans, peas, lentils, chickpeas). â&#x20AC;˘ If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drink alcohol, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t start.

If you do drink, limit consumption to two drinks a day for men and one drink a day for women. (One drink = 5 oz wine, 1.5 oz spirits or 12 oz regular beer). Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drink if you are pregnant. â&#x20AC;˘ Limit salt and salty foods (chips, soy sauce and seasoning mixes), and limit processed foods with added salt (canned soups, processed meats).

Read labels to limit salt. Try adding flavour when cooking by using fresh garlic, turmeric, cooked tomatoes and citrus for great taste. â&#x20AC;˘ Eat fast foods sparingly, if at all. â&#x20AC;˘ Avoid sugary drinks (soft drinks, sweetened fruit drinks, fruit cocktails). Instead, try freshly brewed green or black tea- it may help protect against heart disease and cancer. â&#x20AC;˘ Eat sparingly foods that are high in calories and low in nutrients (chips, candy, chocolate, cakes, cookies, ice cream, sour cream, fried foods).

Women: Tips for better health and energy Moms, career women, singles enjoying life with close friends and family, and even women approaching their retirement years - women at every life stage can benefit from adding simple activities to improve their happiness and health.

Activities can range from enjoying a delicious breakfast to incorporating a cardiovascular workout to limbering up and stretching those muscles.

Consider incorporating a new element to your day to enrich your lifestyle, improve your digestive health and give you energy to tackle the rest of your day. Need some ideas? Try one of these options: â&#x20AC;˘ Flexible body - Healthy stretching can improve flexibility, and help reduce joint or muscle pain. Target core muscles in the legs - such as hips, thighs and calves - and in the upper torso including the lower back, neck and shoulders. While stretching,

donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bounce, or push the stretch past the point of pain. Gently hold each stretch for about 30 seconds. â&#x20AC;˘ Fun workouts - Exercise can be a very negative word for some women, but there are several ways to enjoy a physical workout.

Like to dance? Sign up for an adult jazz, ballroom dance or even Zumba class. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like to sweat? Take your workout to the pool with some water aerobics. Bored?

Bring a friend or family member with you for some exercise like a bike ride, inline skating, a walk or maybe even a yoga class. â&#x20AC;˘ Breakfast treats What you consume at the beginning of the day can determine how the rest of your day goes. Getting good amounts of fibre and protein through fruits and dairy products is a great way to target heart health, and maintain high energy levels throughout the day. Enjoy a fruit smoothie at the start of your day.

Keeping informed and educated about your health A diagnosis of cancer can be extremely frightening.

Along with the battery of medical tests, patients are often faced with an overwhelming amount of information to absorb, covering everything from disease information, treatment decisions to financial implications.

This fear of the “unknown” is often the worst part of any cancer diagnosis. In order to cope, patients often rely heavily on their doctors and support groups to help them translate the enormous amount of medical information into language that makes sense and is most relevant to them and their personal cancer journey. For many, like single mom Robyn Greene, getting the right information about her diagnosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a blood cancer, was critical for both her and her family.

In September 2008, Greene was constantly plagued by severe colds, fevers and stomach bugs. Robyn chalked this up to her 14-month old son who was in daycare, and was often catching colds from the other children. But, after more than 6 months of no improvement, she visited her general practitioner who conducted a blood test in February of 2009. Within a week, Greene received her shocking diagnosis: CML. “As a single mom of a toddler, I was terrified that I had received a death sentence with my cancer diagnosis,”

h t he Riv c t a C

says Greene. “Thankfully, my doctor referred me to a cancer specialist who, after further reviewing my test results, said that he had high hopes for me because patients with CML can continue to live active lives for years to come. Even more surprising to me was

that this type of cancer can be managed through medication.”

Today, as a result of advances in the understanding of CML and the availability of treatment options which control the underlying cause of the disease, CML can be managed by working closely with a healthcare team to develop the best possible treatment plan.

er Spirit!

That’s just what Greene did. After learning of her diagnosis, Greene worked closely with her physician to develop a personal disease management plan, including communicating with her doctor to understand her treatment plan, establishing clear treatment goals and continuing to take her medication as prescribed. With proper disease management and support from her friends and family, Greene continues to live an active life.

“Six months after I started treatment, I was in major molecular response, which means that the levels of the cancercausing protein - known as Bcr-Abl - is nearly undetectable in my body,” says Greene. “I continue to work closely with my physicians to evaluate my treatment plan, and aside from a few side effects, I am able to live the full and active lifestyle that I enjoy, including raising my son and working full-time.”

ABOUT CHRONIC MYELOID LEUKEMIA (CML) Chronic myeloid leukemia is a cancer of the blood and bone marrow in which the body overproduces white blood cells. Chronic means a relatively slower-growing cancer that may take years to progress. Myeloid refers to the type of white blood cell being overproduced. CML is responsible for approximately 10 to 15 percent of all adult cases of leukemia, with an incidence of one to two cases per 100,000 people per year.
